I couldn't find a recording of it, but here is an article with quotes. Juicy.

COLUMBIA — An interesting exchange took place on Columbia radio waves Tuesday afternoon, with former South Carolina running back Duce Staley calling out former USC recruiting coordinator David Reaves.
Reaves, who recently joined Tennessee's new coaching staff, was then invited on WNKT-FM's "Halftime Show," with Staley and co-host Jay Philips.
Predictably, Reaves defended himself against accusations that he's been playing dirty with Gamecocks recruits since leaving for UT after the Nov. 29 Clemson game.
"In clearing that up, I've never said a bad thing about the University of South Carolina," Reaves said. "People are going to say what they're going to say, but I would never do anything to hurt the University of South Carolina."
Several issues have surfaced pertaining to Reaves and recruiting in the short time since he's been gone.
In the days after he left, sources said he was in contact with Rock Hill prospects Stephon Gilmore and DeVonte Holloman, Rivals four-star recruits who are hard commitments with the Gamecocks.
Reaves said, yes, he had been in touch with them. But only to let them know he was leaving and to, as he said, "wish them well at USC." He noted that a coordinator develops a bond after recruiting kids for a year or two.
Reaves was later asked about actually visiting one of their homes in Rock Hill. He said that it happened, but there is a distinction between visiting a family and a prospect. Reaves said the family contacted him and wanted to talk with him about Tennessee, where Reaves' brother-in-law Lane Kiffin was just hired. Reaves said it would've been foolish not to follow up on the family's request.
Additionally, some have asserted that Reaves has told prospects that he knows USC coach Steve Spurrier will retire in the next year, preying on a widely held idea that Spurrier is frustrated with how things have gone in four seasons.
"No, I've never said that to any recruit. I've never mentioned coach Spurrier is going to retire," Reaves said. "I've talked to coach Spurrier. He's very excited at the University of South Carolina, and he's looking forward to coaching at South Carolina and winning championships there."
Last weekend, Tampa, Fla., running back Jarvis Giles said Reaves told him he went to Tennessee to win championships. Some insinuated that meant Reaves didn't feel like he could win them at USC, where the Gamecocks have one conference title (1969 ACC) to their credit.
On Tuesday he said he was speaking more to the Volunteers' rich tradition. As an example, he cited UT's five appearances in the SEC title game in the past 10 years and 13 conference titles overall.
Giles, a four-star prospect according to Rivals, formally committed to the Gamecocks on Tuesday.
Staley didn't exactly hold back before talking to Reaves. Or even when he had the young assistant on the phone line.
"I'm going to be real with you right now, Reaves," Staley said. "Your name is mud here."
Staley, a 10-year NFL veteran, insisted to Reaves that he wanted to have him on so it didn't seem like he was talking bad about him behind his back. He thanked Reaves for coming on and "being a man about it."
Reaves, who also coached USC's quarterbacks, said he wanted to reach out to someone in Columbia because friends had told him what his reputation had become.
"I guess that happens when you make a change," he said. "I would never do anything to discredit the university."
Spurrier will coach the quarterbacks in the Jan. 1 Outback Bowl. With two current openings — including offensive line coach, as well — he's making a decision about how he wants to shake up his offensive staff."

I think there was something to it too, because spurrier himself actually said something about it. Contrast that with the way beamer handled his departure and he wasn't even leaving to go in the same conference or division.

If Reaves continues on this career trajectory he will be selling shoes at Foot Locker in two years.

Loyalty is big to the HBC, and it was a reach for him to hire Reaves in the first place. SOS coached his Dad in the USFL, who has fallen into real hard times. He gave Reaves a chance and gets it in the back as a thank you.

Yep...and maybe letting him be the QB coach was a safe place since SOS coached them anyway. This did not work out and DR is at best a mediocre QB coach. G.A. Mangus is on a whole nother level. We have a HBC and we have a QB coach who goes and recruits solid talent.
